commit 723ac751208f6d6540191689cfbf6c77135a7a1b upstream.

If creation or finalization of a checkpoint fails due to anomalies in the
checkpoint metadata on disk, a kernel warning is generated.

This patch replaces the WARN_ONs by nilfs_error, so that a kernel, booted
with panic_on_warn, does not panic.  A nilfs_error is appropriate here to
handle the abnormal filesystem condition.

This also replaces the detected error codes with an I/O error so that
neither of the internal error codes is returned to callers.

<title>nilfs2: fix leak of nilfs_root in case of writer thread creation failure</title>

commit d0d51a97063db4704a5ef6bc978dddab1636a306 upstream.

If nilfs_attach_log_writer() failed to create a log writer thread, it
frees a data structure of the log writer without any cleanup.  After
commit e912a5b66837 ("nilfs2: use root object to get ifile"), this causes
a leak of struct nilfs_root, which started to leak an ifile metadata inode
and a kobject on that struct.

In addition, if the kernel is booted with panic_on_warn, the above
ifile metadata inode leak will cause the following panic when the
nilfs2 kernel module is removed:

  kmem_cache_destroy nilfs2_inode_cache: Slab cache still has objects when

commit d325dc6eb763c10f591c239550b8c7e5466a5d09 upstream.

If the beginning of the inode bitmap area is corrupted on disk, an inode
with the same inode number as the root inode can be allocated and fail
soon after.  In this case, the subsequent call to nilfs_clear_inode() on
that bogus root inode will wrongly decrement the reference counter of
struct nilfs_root, and this will erroneously free struct nilfs_root,
causing kernel oopses.

This fixes the problem by changing nilfs_new_inode() to skip reserved
inode numbers while repairing the inode bitmap.

commit 21a87d88c2253350e115029f14fe2a10a7e6c856 upstream.

If the i_mode field in inode of metadata files is corrupted on disk, it
can cause the initialization of bmap structure, which should have been
called from nilfs_read_inode_common(), not to be called.  This causes a
lockdep warning followed by a NULL pointer dereference at
nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level().

This patch fixes these issues by adding a missing sanitiy check for the
i_mode field of metadata file's inode.

commit 4f526fef91b24197d489ff86789744c67f475bb4 upstream.

Let me count the ways in which I'd screwed up:

* when emitting a page, handling of gaps in coredump should happen
before fetching the current file position.
* fix for a problem that occurs on rather uncommon setups (and hadn't
been observed in the wild) had been sent very late in the cycle.
* ... with badly insufficient testing, introducing an easily
reproducible breakage.  Without giving it time to soak in -next.

commit 2e488f13755ffbb60f307e991b27024716a33b29 upstream.

In alloc_inode, inode_init_always() could return -ENOMEM if
security_inode_alloc() fails, which causes inode-&gt;i_private
uninitialized. Then nilfs_is_metadata_file_inode() returns
true and nilfs_free_inode() wrongly calls nilfs_mdt_destroy(),
which frees the uninitialized inode-&gt;i_private
and leads to crashes(e.g., UAF/GPF).

Fix this by moving security_inode_alloc just prior to
this_cpu_inc(nr_inodes)

Pull pstore revert from Kees Cook:
 "A misbehavior with some compression backends in pstore was just
  discovered due to the recent crypto acomp migration.

  Since we're so close to release, it seems better to just simply revert
  it, and we can figure out what's going on without leaving it broken
  for a release.

   - Revert crypto acomp migration (Guilherme G. Piccoli)"

Pull pstore revert from Kees Cook:
 "A misbehavior with some compression backends in pstore was just
  discovered due to the recent crypto acomp migration.

  Since we're so close to release, it seems better to just simply revert
  it, and we can figure out what's going on without leaving it broken
  for a release.

This reverts commit e4f0a7ec586b7644107839f5394fb685cf1aadcc.

When using this new interface, both efi_pstore and ramoops
backends are unable to properly decompress dmesg if using
zstd, lz4 and lzo algorithms (and maybe more). It does succeed
with deflate though.

The message observed in the kernel log is:

[2.328828] pstore: crypto_acomp_decompress failed, ret = -22!

The pstore infrastructure is able to collect the dmesg with
both backends tested, but since decompression fails it's
unreadable. With this revert everything is back to normal.

passing kmap_local_page() result to __kernel_write() is unsafe -
random -&gt;write_iter() might (and 9p one does) get unhappy when
passed ITER_KVEC with pointer that came from kmap_local_page().

Fix by providing a variant of __kernel_write() that takes an iov_iter
from caller (__kernel_write() becomes a trivial wrapper) and adding
dump_emit_page() that parallels dump_emit(), except that instead of
__kernel_write() it uses __kernel_write_iter() with ITER_BVEC source.
